This author has done a wonderful job of giving us a a clearer view of old Colonial Newport. Both the slave trade and pirates were cleansed from the general history books long ago, and without them we cannot truly understand the complex nature of Newport today, and how it got there. There is some very interesting content in this book that cannot be found in the general literature. They sure didn't teach us this stuff in school years ago.......a very fascinating book, well worth reading!!!!!!
